Weird Laws~ 1:) in Florida~ Single, divorced, or widowed women may not parachute on Sunday afternoons! I am going to guess that a married woman can so I ask what's up with that? 2:) also in Florida~ sexual relations with a porcupine is illegal.. so I ask ..who is breaking this weird law.. Those women who can't parachute? 3:) in Kansas ~In Natoma, it is illegal to throw a knife at anyone wearing a striped shirt. Are we to assume that if I wear a plain shirt... solid in color that I may have knives thrown at me? Who would throw knives at another person unless they are in some weird circus act?

~Maybe I'll just stay out of Kansas and go to Florida instead.. I never like porcupines and I don't plan to parachute on any day..let alone on Sunday afternoon.

Weird Questions!

1:}~ Have you ever been on a rooftop of a building? - I do find this to be a weird question.. why do you care if I climbed up on top of a building? Is there some weird law that says I can't..Once I hear a ruckus coming fro m my neighbors yard and because he had a tall board fence I couldn't sneak around and see what was going on.. I tried to get up high enough and stand on a stack of stuff.. Finally my son said.. "you can see over there from the top of the car port.. Me and Dave climbed up there and kept watch as we called the police.. The man was drunk and trying to fight his own self.. He even pulled a gun and kept yelling I'll shoot I'll shoot at himself.. He was that weird kind of drunk when you think you are whole room full of people.. and you're the boss.. where somebody is gonna get an butt kicking and you're the only person there.. I personally have never been that drunk.. It is way too weird.. But I have seen others that drunk.. so I'm not sure if the carport counts.. but if it does then I have been on top of a building..

2:}~ Would you rather be stung by a scorpion or bit by a snake? (Don't say either...no one wants to be in pain, that's the point. Pick one.) I have already been snake bit.. twice.. Once way back when I lived in Allendale me and Trudy was going to dig us up a rose bush from a vacant house.. Don't be weird.. I know what you are thinking.. WE did NOT steal them I called the owner and she said we could get them.. I thought an ant bit me.. the next morning I was sicker than a dog.. went to the doctor and he saw my swollen hand.. he said it was a baby rattler that got me with one fang.. I had to take shots back then I think they have pills now though.. Oh Lord I was one sick woman for a few days.. But I made it through.. then Two or three years ago I was digging in the yard and dug one up with my hand... He got me on the back of my hand.. I knew he was a water snake but I wasn't sure rather it was poisonous or not.. I put him in a fish tank and fed him small guppy type fish every day.. he had a great aquarium pen with a screen top.. a heated rock and his own private pond ...stocked with fresh minnows every morning.. It was weird the way he ate so much but he kept getting thinner and thinner.. finally he just dried up and died.. I guess I have a weird body chemistry or something.. I killed the snake.. How mean does one have to be to poison a snake??

3:}~ When was the last time you....
- had sex?- You know better than this weird question.. I haven't today yet.. I hate these questions.. you should get some excitement in your life then you want be so worried about when I had sex.. Quit being weird!
- swam in a lake?- That has been a few years but I did swim in the ocean this summer till that turd floated right by me and that marine was there laughing him and his girlfriend.. yuck.. I was ticked off... some weird and crazy person pooped in the beach.. Nasty! I may never swim in Public water again..
- went barefoot outside?-I do that all the time.. I have weird feet .. they hate shoes..I did that today and then again tonight with my friends here... we had a pop up night before wedding party at my house.. It was weird a little bit.. Me and some friends and the bride to be hung out for a while.. we laughed and Talked .. Yea we were weird.. we tried to give the bride some wedding night advice but she said us old ladies were weird in ways she didn't want to know.. They ate pound cake and swore I am the best pound cake cooker..
- ate peas? I ate some peas a few weeks ago.. I have a bunch of peas in my garden almost ready to pick.. Then I will eat way too many fresh peas.. I love them and am waiting for them to be ready to pick.. I am weird I reckon but veggies are my favorite food.. I even heard a recipe for making fake sausage patties from field peas..I know it sounds weird.. when I try it I'll let you know if it was good or not.. you know I am weird and will be bound to try the recipe..
What kind of weird multi question is this? I want some of whatever the writer of this was drinking..

Tonight has been weird but good I had a couple of friends stop by and we had a night before the wedding bachelorette party.. we mostly just laughed and talked.. My house is weird but fun.. they marveled at my chickens I have a few weird breeds like the top hats with Afros and all the weird plants and stuff in my yard.. angels and wooden men.. giant saw blade tables.. and weird stuff.. It's my house and my yard did you expect anything less than weird?

I hope you have had a laugh tonight with my weird Wednesday post... I am running a little late.. weird how time flies when you are having a party.. Have a wonderfully weird and wild night!

Why Am I So Weird?

“Live life fully while you're here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don't try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.” ~ Anthony Robbins

"It's not so much what you have to learn if you accept weird theories, it's what you have to unlearn" ~ Isaac Asimov

"The Public may think I'm weird. They may think I'm crazy or anything that anyone wants to think about me That's all fine" ~ Paul Reubens ~ ( better know as Pee Wee Herman!)

I love weird Laws.. I will share a few with you.. and my thoughts on them..

1~) In Washington State, you can't carry a concealed weapon that is over 6 feet in length... and where exactly would one conceal this 6 foot long weapon? in their pocket??

2~) In the state of Colorado, a pet cat, if loose, must have a tail-light ! ... I'm, not touching this law.. I wouldn't want to be the one to plug that light in.. would you??

3~) In Florida, it is against the law to put livestock on a school bus... I have got to ask you..why would they need to make this law? was Granny sending her goats to school?

I know you love it when I am weird.. I have so many people who love the weird questions and answers.. I have even thought about making a blog just for the weird side of me.. Maybe I will run out of weird questions some day.. Maybe I will become normal and forget how to be weird? Do you think that could happen?.. Me neither! So Now I'll get on over to the weird questions..

1~) Have you ever played strip poker? How well did you do? ~ The whole concept of strip poker is so weird to me... who wins? .. the one who is naked the fastest or the one who still has clothes on at the end of the game? .. if the object of the game is to get some one naked then wouldn't you win by getting naked first?.. I was invited to a weird and wild party once where I was told they would be playing strip poker.. I went wearing a dozen rings and layers of clothes.. bracelets and necklaces wrapped around my arms and neck.. I looked like a homeless gypsy in all my clothes and bling.. I was so weird.. everyone there gave me weird looks and stayed away from me.. all except this one weirdo who kept asking me if I wanted to see his royal flush... I was so confused.. I knew he was weird and I figured if he had a hidden royal flush.. he had already won the game.. I stood in the corner for about forty five minutes and finally just eased out the door.. everyone there was weird anyway.. they didn't even miss me..

2~)Do you have any weird rituals that you do before you go to bed each night?~
That depends on exactly what do you consider weird? do you mean like dancing naked in front of my bathroom mirror and pretending to sing? Or brushing my hair while I hang upside down in the peach tree in my back yard? Or standing on one foot and clapping my hands as I chant Oogy boogy?.. I usually stand up from the computer..~ Dave works nights... I blog and write nights.. days we spend doing stuff here together for the most part..~ I stand up from the computer and stretch while I say aloud " Damn I'm tired.. I'm going to bed!" I know I am weird for speaking aloud to an empty house.. Oh well! I admit to being about half weird anyway... then I shower.. take dirty clothes and towels to the laundry room and crawl into bed.. sometimes I do turn the TV on.. I always say a few words to my Maker just before I go to sleep.. I would say I am pretty normal with no weird rituals.. well except for the whole Oogy Boogy thing..

3~)What brings you joy? What fills your heart with giggles? Joy and Giggles.. I know people think I'm a weird old woman who doesn't do joy and giggles.. I must admit I don't have many giggles any more.. I never was too much of a giggler.. I was too busy being weird to ever really get into the giggle thing.. it really doesn't take all that much to bring me joy.. some days the roosters crow can bring me joy.. just being alive at sunrise can bring me joy... a day where I don't have to be around a moron can bring me great joy and comes close to filling my heart with giggles.. My children bring me great joy as do my Grand children and my sibling's children.. Little children do make me giggle some times too... especially when they say things that are weird to hear from a child's lips.. things like "when I was grown"... or " lets dance like we did when I was old!" I always.. for some weird reason... glance around for who ever they might think they are.. Maybe they were once grown.. maybe they did dance with me when they were old.. Maybe I am weird...

4~) Who is more disorganized: you or your significant other? I hate that weird significant other phrase.. I am sure you are talking about Dave even though you call him by that weird name... This is about the easiest weird question I have ever had.. I am organized.. I know my house is weird and looks as if No one is organized here.. I will let you in on a secret.. I know where everything is.. I will know in a skinny minute if you touch anything in my house..I am weird like that.. If you as much as shift a chair.. a hair's breath.. I will notice it.. I will get all weird too.. don't shift my chairs please.. Dave has no clue where he left the hammer.. one is under the house.. he knows the tape is here somewhere.. I know where three different kinds are.. I am more organized.. we are both weird.. But I know where every one my weird things are!!

That is it for tonight.. I could answer a million weird questions each week.. there are at least that many people out there writing weird questions.. Tonight has been busy.. the phone has been a constant ring.. the rain has settled in for the night.. and I have done a lot of writing.. plus entertained a few visitors.. I have searched through old pictures deciding what would be great for my blog and what would just be too weird... I have laughed at weird laws and made up a few weird rituals.. Now even though it would really and truly be weird.. I am planning an early night.. Have a wonderfully Weird Wednesday!

Wednesday and It's full of Weird!

"Weird, strange, different and unique are all different shades of the same word. How you perceive an experience or individual will determine which shade of this word you use. Another person's perception may be entirely different," ~ Mr. Prophet

“I used to think that anyone doing anything weird was weird. I suddenly realized that anyone doing anything weird wasn't weird at all and it was the people saying they were weird that were weird.” ~ Paul McCartney

"Seven nurses and the baby has no eyes" which vaguely translates as "Too many cooks spoil the broth". ~ Weird Russian proverbs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While looking for weird quotes today I came across a whole lot of weird.. Did I say WEIRD Laws.. I have most likely broke some of them with out even knowing they were laws... All of them are weird.. some of them are really weird and a few of them are plain Scary! I will be sharing a few of them with you today before we get to the weird questions!


Top ten Worldwide Weird Laws~ Number 7: Muslims are banned from looking at the genitals of a corpse. This also applies to undertakers; the sex organs of the deceased must be covered with a brick or a piece of wood at all times. (A piece of wood?...a brick? In extreme cases do they cover with a board and set a brick on top of that?)


In California~

It is a misdemeanor to shoot at any kind of game from a moving vehicle, unless the target is a whale.

It is illegal to set a mousetrap without a hunting license.

Animals are banned from mating publicly within 1,500 feet from a tavern,school or place of worship.

For some weird reason I thought killing whales was illegal?? All mice need to die.. I hate mice!.. and this third law.. Umm who regulates that? does it include the whales and the mice? And if they can hide so that they aren't seen publicly.. is it then legal? You folks in California are weird!


In Tennessee~

It's illegal to transport a skunk across state lines.

It is illegal to use a lasso to catch a fish.

~ I am thinking this skunk law is obsolete! I wonder how many cars right now crossing the line coming this way have a hidden compartment with a fat skunk inside of it? I would like to see some cowpoke lasso a fish.. I think My brother Jimmy might be successful though.. He has roped a lot of things including people..

Now we move on to the weird questions.

1-]] Someone dares you to eat two cooked bulls testicles for 1,500 dollars. They're fried, topped with nacho cheese, lima beans and maple syrup and you have to eat it all. Are you going to eat it for the cash or pass? Do I really look that weird? My first husband once brought home some boar hog balls and although I refused he did clean them and cooked them himself.. He was so happily enjoying them that he convinced me to taste one.. It Tasted just like all other pork to me.. But bull testicles are huge.. they used to have some crazy weird show on Television where they ate all the weird animal parts.. I saw Bull testicles being ate on there once.. I'm not sure I could eat them even for 1500 $ .. How weird and broke does one have to be to eat weird stuff for 1500 $??.... I'm thinking I'm not quiet there yet.... besides I hate maple syrup so I guess I'd have to pass..


2-] ~ Strong in mind or strong in body? I am strong in Mind.. not quiet so strong in body.. Dave is strong in body.. You should see him pick me up when... Oh weird I almost told a secret... We are both actually kinda strong in body.. we work in the yard a lot.. Dave has a job that requires a great deal of strength in both areas.. When I worked at the hotel washing and folding the gazillion nasty bed sheets everyday I needed a strong body and sometimes a strong stomach.. I also needed a strong mind to tolerate the bosses and to work in the office dealing with those who sometimes came for a room... People are plain nasty... I guess we had a lot of weirdos who stayed there.. but if this weird questions means I can just choose one.. I'll choose strong in Body.. I'll improve my weak mind provided I have sense enough to know I need to.. I hate these weird either or questions.. who would want to be a super strong dum-bass or a super smart weakling? that isn't much of a choice.. Can I be weird and say a little of each please?

3-] ~ Where is your favorite places on the body to be kissed? Favorite places to kiss? Y'all know y'all are so delightfully weird trying to sneak a sexual question in like it's innocent... I have a few places I like to be kissed... Dave knows them all.. he found most of them before I knew I liked it.. I think that's way more info than anyone else needs since I don't plan on being kissed in those places by anyone other than Dave.. maybe I'll be weird one day and write them down for him just in case he might forget But for now.. Quit being weird! Places to kiss.. well that depends on who I'm kissing.. I will kiss my brothers on their cheek sometimes.. It's a dirty job but some one has to do it... I don't kiss brother-in-laws.. that would be way to weird.. those are the lips that kissed my sister.. in her good places.. Brrrr.. I kiss my kids on the head and the cheek.. when they were tiny I kissed their feet and hands too.. I know I'm a weird Mama.. I also kissed and snuggled their chins and necks and ears.. honestly I am not too big on kissing anyone who is not my lover.. and in my weird world that also means Dave!!!!! I have kissed my sisters on the cheek too.. I love them and could hug them to pieces but Kissing is special..

4-]~ Have you ever walked in on someone else having sex? How did you and the people involved react? This is so weird when it happens.. I had some family of a relative.. ( I know that is weird).. They came to town to hunt Deer and got drunk in a bar and called me to come there too.I went and wouldn't let them drive or go to their elderly Mom's house in that state.. So i being the good friend that I am brought the whole kit and caboodle home with me.. My kids were at their Dad's and I was at that time a single woman.. One guy was on the phone and another had walked outside with his lady he picked up in the bar.. The dad to these two guys was asking about the house and said he'd like a tour.. I knew what he was after but I was dating Dave.. It would have been weird to hook up like that anyway.. I proceed to take him on a tour and as we step into the kids room and I flipped on the light .. there they were.. One of the guys and his girl from the club.. he yelled at me to turn out the light and she hid her face.. She should have hid it in shame.. I was mad.. More than mad... I got weird ... The woman decided she might need to go quick.. I found parts of her outfit from here to the highway.. The guy just rolled over and closed his eyes and gave me a weird thanks... The Dad fell asleep sitting at the table with his coffee and the guy on the phone walked back to the bar and got their rented car and showed up here the next morning sober and ready to go hunting.. how weird does one have to be to get naked and find themselves in that predicament in some strangers house in her kids bedroom on a tiny crib mattress sized bed??? God, please If I ever even think of acting that weird and crazy.. please come on down here and get me!

5-] ~What birth control do you use? none.. old age.. I was spade almost twenty years ago.. And I thought that was fixed.. did Y'all know that the surgery is only guaranteed for five years??? When I was sick a couple of years ago they were doing all these tests on me and they kept asking when I last had sex... I told them they were weird and they made me watch a truly weird video about how the tubes come untied and grow back together.. I was about to come unglued... then the weird tests kept coming back inconclusive??? how can that happen.. I wanted them to do something to check mine.. they said I was weird.. Me weird.. Y'all ain't seen weird till I get pregnant at 50 years old!!!

6-] ~ Pretend you spent a busy day running errands and shopping... you come home in the afternoon when no one else is home. You come in, sit things down and head to the kitchen. You find a dead body laying in the kitchen floor. What would you do? This is truly one of the weirdest questions I have ever seen.. Is this person someone I know? Is it someone I might even want to see dead? (don't be weird we all have enemies..) Is it someone I might get accused of killing? Is it a fat man or a skinny woman? why are they in my floor? did they die naturally or did someone kill them? How did they get in my house? See there are way to many weird possibilities with this question..That is why I would bury them in the back yard.. No weird questions to answer and I can always plant daisies on top of them.. What did you think I was going to do? Call the police? .. I'm weird not stupid.. I'm not going to jail for some dead person I didn't kill.. unless of course it is someone I know and like and can plainly see died from natural causes.. In which case I will call a friend to help me move the body back to their own home after dark and then we will "find" them and call the police! This weird thing will never happen to me though.. no way am I going to be out all day shopping!

Wow the questions are weird.. laws are weird.. today has been weird.. this week has been weird.. Maybe I am just plain and simply weird!? Last night I had weird dreams.. I woke up this morning as my daughter was stepping into the kitchen and we had moved our bed.. she looked at my doorway and was looking me in the eye.. her foot step woke me up and for a weird second I forgot we had moved the room around.. and we both squealed.. that was weird.. Cooper is coming home for the week-end to get his car and bringing a girlfriend with him.. That feels weird too.. All my kids are grown and maybe now I'll really begin to do weird things... all the things I missed out on when I was young? I'm thinking I most likely won't... I'll just stay my old weird self and dig in the dirt and raise chickens... Have a delightfully; dizzying; weird day!
Patsy

It's Wednesday and YES !! ~ I'm still weird!!!

"Know what's weird? Day by day, nothing seems to change. But pretty soon, everything is different." ~ Bill Watterson

"It seems everyone in Hollywood is getting pinched, lifted and pulled. I'm looking weird because I'm not." ~ Robert Redford

"Yesterday's weirdness is tomorrow's reason why." ~ Hunter S. Thompson

How weird has your day been? My day hasn't been so very weird yet today.. But it's Wednesday and I'm sure something weird will sneak up on me before the day ends... I can almost promise that each and every one of today's questions will be weird.. My Answers will be weird.. I did try a weird new recipe today.. Apples and cabbage.. cooked together and seasoned with a little bacon grease.. Sounds weird doesn't it? Dave gave me a really weird look as I sliced the apples into the frying pan with the cabbage.. " You do know that~ Umm~ Umm~ that is cabbage right?" I just smiled at him.. I know it sounds weird.. I thought so too the very first time I had it.. Try it if you ever have a head of cabbage and a few apples that all need to be cooked before they ruin..Or even make a trip to the store with this dish in mind.. Sometimes weird is Good! I'm a weird Mother.. a weird writer and now a weird Cook! I never stop reaching new heights of weirdness.. Now on to the weird questions for today..

1:)~ What was a “fad” you remember from your childhood? I don't actually remember a "fad" from my childhood.. well there was the weird and ugly go go boots that weren't really boots at all but just Patent leather things like socks that went in regular shoes.. Mama bought all of us girls a pair of those when she saw them at K-Mart in Charleston.. I was laughed almost OUT of the fifth grade when I wore mine to school.. I am sure they had Fads back then but we were kept pretty close to home.. we didn't have much time for Fads.. There was a fad that I did become aware of when I was about eleven years old.. David came home one day with a big piece of red cloth and sat down at the sewing machine.. He split his pants legs open up to the knee and cut huge triangles from his bright red cloth.. he then sewed the material into the split making a gored leg on his pants.. I loved it.. He had several pair.. He might think it too weird to admit now but I loved him and his super coolness back then.. he was always stylish.. a weird style for sure but he was up to date! I looked and looked for some material to make myself a pair of those super cool gored legged pants.. Finally one day Mama came home with a big sack full of bright and cheerful new kitchen curtains.. The old ones were a few years old and a couple of them were even a little faded... I was going to miss those old curtains with the bright colored chickens and the wide yellow checked ruffles.. Suddenly as I helped hang new curtains I came up with a wonderful weird idea.. I was almost afraid to mention it to mama.. but since she had planned to throw the old curtains away anyway.. she agreed to my plan.. I went to school the next morning in my own weird creation of gored pants.. wide yellow ruffled gores filled the split from ankle to almost hip.. twin roosters decorated the butte of my old jeans.. with-in a week all of my friends and even a few enemies were wearing gored legged .. pants.. None were weird enough to use chicken curtains but everyone loved mine.. Everyone except my Grandma Morris.. she saw them and had a fit.. She tried to make Daddy burn my wonderful pants.. she said I'd be a rooster myself if I wore them.. That was so weird.. I didn't even know what that meant.. Mama said I could keep them and wear them.. I wish I still had my pants.. I'm pretty sure I wore them out.. I'm also sure that if I had tried that before David made his pants I would have been labeled weird.. I mighta even got a whipping.. he could get away with stuff.. Thanks David for clearing the path for the other seven of us!! Even if the whole world called you weird I'd still say you were the coolest!!

2:)~ If a talking Patsy doll were made, what are THREE phrases it would say?~ How weird it would be to have a talking doll named Patsy! ... Effenbee actually made a whole family of Patsy dolls.. Patsy Ann.. Patsyette.. Patsy JR.. None of them talked and though I have seen them for sale on e-bay.. I don't own one... they are way to rich for my blood.. and to be honest I think they are weird looking.. I am sure there have been other dolls named Patsy offered for sale.. most companies give their dolls common names.. Patsy is considered to be a common name.. I will say though that most people I personally know named Patsy are weird.. and if not truly weird then at least UN-common! Most people who are name Patricia choose other names such as Tricia or Pat .. even Patti.. I am glad mama chose Patsy to call me.. I like being the weird me I have became as Patsy.. Can you really see me as a Tricia or a Patti? Me neither!! And I hate being called Pat! It makes me feel weird.. I don't like it .. don't do it.. Do you think anyone would want a weird doll named Patsy that could talk? She would never shut up.. she would talk the buzzards off of a gut wagon.. ( Jimmy said I could!) She would say way more than three things.. She would say weird stuff like.. (1) " Sometimes ya can't understand.. Just accept.. it's easier that way!" (2) " You can't fool me.. I was fooling fools before you were a wicked gleam in your ugly Daddies eye!" (3) " Don't make me have a killing!" ~ she would also say things like "no food till this puzzle is done.." and "Load up young- uns we're heading to Olar!" and "that's my brother's cousin".. see I told you she would be really weird.. you would never get her to shut up.. she would hide in your closet and learn all of your secrets.. she might even black mail you.. On the other hand she would be a true loving friend as long as you didn't tick her off..

3:)~ Do you think how a person dances gives you a glimpse to how they perform in bed?
Here we go again.. weird sex questions.. I am going to answer this with a simple yes I do..
Maybe my family will neither disown me nor have a stroke.. I am still allowed to think..
and now I will add to my answer by saying that a person to decrepit to dance is most likely also to decrepit for other activities.. I also like to see people dance together when you can see by the tender way they hold each other that they have a deep and abiding love for each other.. It really has little or nothing to do with their sex lives..I enjoy watching others dance and always smile when I see a couple who dance well together.. Call me weird.. I like watching people do a lot of things- even walk..

4:) ~ Describe the ugliest outfit you have ever worn in public. Do y'all remember the weird "Hammer Pants?" On the very first public date Dave and I had... I wore hammer pants.. They were a silky weird.. man- made material.. a deep dark purple.. MC Hammer would have been so proud of me in them..I also wore black silk super high heeled shoes and a many colored.. Striped top in the same weird.. man- made material.. They came together .. I gave a lot of money for those weird and ugly clothes.. We walked in the club and People took notice of us.. He was wearing tight Black jeans and a Purple silk shirt that he borrowed from one of his co-workers..
Both of us had our long hair in a braid.... People turned around and stared at us..I think maybe we were weird... It was a red neck club and we were dressed like pansies.. All that purple had to be weird for red necks.. We are lucky to have survived I guess.. But man when we took to that dance floor.. then those people cleared out and watched us... We were wearing ugly clothes but we danced well together.. We have often had people stop to watch us dance.. either we dance well together or we were just so weird that they had to stand still to take us in?... I think I still have those hammer pants.. Yep!! Ugly!! Ugly!! Ugly!! If you ever need something weird to wear I can Most likely loan you something..

5:)~ Have you ever worn or tried edible underwear? What are your thoughts on it? This is such a weird question.. When Dave and I got married our neighbors all got together and gave us a party.. we didn't get toasters and blenders because we already had all that stuff.. we got weird stuff like jars of cherries and whipped cream .. we each got a set of matching pajama's... and as weird as it may seem we did get some of those edible underwear.. His were boxers and mine were a thong... they were both red .. one was cherry and the other strawberry flavored.... I am going to be perfectly honest even if it is weird.. we came home and opened the packs.. we tasted both pair.. they were nasty and left a weird aftertaste in our mouths.. we balled them up and stuffed them back into their packages and threw them into the trash can.. We brushed our teeth and finished watching a movie that we had paused to go to our wedding shower.. Later that night after he had went home to his trailer across the field.... as I was laying in my bed thinking about the day.. I thought about the fact that my kids would be home early the next morning and I went and got them because I didn't want my kids to ask me why there were underwear in the trash... I know I was being weird.. But Dave and I were careful about our Kids.. I put the edible drawers into several plastic bags and put them back in the trash a day or so later.. I don't have thoughts on edible drawers.. that to me would just be weird.. I wouldn't wear them... I think they would make your butt sticky... that would be weird... and they taste nasty... Maybe I'm just old and a little tiny bit weird but I haven't ever had a thought about edible underwear other than when I was given a pair and just now when you reminded me of that fact.. Now who is weird.. Me or YOU??!

6:)~ When was the last time you went to a carnival and played midway games? Oh man.. I can't say for sure rather it has been two years or three but that was maybe one of the weirdest nights of my entire life.... The carnival was set up in the field that is in front of the airport here in my little town.. Pretty much across the road from my house.. just an easy stroll for us.... I used to be fascinated by carnivals until i worked as clown for the county fair in my early twenties... being considered another worker there I was shown many of the tricks and traps the Carney's use in order to get a person's money.. I always warned my children to ride the rides and pass the games.. they are all rigged.. You can't beat a man at his own game.. weird as it may sound even the little pick up the ducks pond is rigged.. There is only one duck that actually wins anything worth more than a quarter.. and that one duck is very rarely released by a trigger that the Carney can pull without being seen.. They have so many tricks and secrets that it is a total waste of money to even attempt to win a big prize there.... Needless to say the children whined and begged and escaped to the carnival with a few dollars for rides and enough for an elephant ear and a drink.. they all worked so it was their own money.. ( yes they were weird and informed me that it was their money they would be spending!!) They planned to meet a bunch of their friends there and walked away across our field laughing and talking.. Around Eleven O'clock Dave came in and said that he had a yearning for a elephant ear and that after he bathed and dressed and shaved and all the other time consuming things.. we would walk up there and he could get one... By the time he got himself ready and we were walking out the door it was nearly midnight.. I suggested that maybe they would be closed and it might be better to wait till the following day.. He was having none of that.. after all the kids weren't back yet so he was sure they were still open.. He hadn't thought about the possibility that the kids had walked the girl from down the next road over home.. It was late.. Cooper wouldn't let her walk home alone would he?? Dave and I walked down the dirt road and as we crossed the road I realized that the only people I could see moving looked like Carney's to me.. Dave walked right on .. the woman in the cook wagon looked at us like we were weird.. I knew we were in a bad place.. I tried to explain to Dave that after closing the carnival is not a safe place for regular people to hang out.. He didn't want to hear me.. one of the barkers started yelling for him to TRY his LUCK!! and yes My weird husband decided he would do just that.. he gave the man two dollars and then two more.. I had already moved directly behind him so that no one could get to his pockets.. I had learned that while I worked for the carnival myself.. Many of the children who travel with them are superb pick pockets.... then so help me.. Dave asked the Carney if anyone there had change.. I was aware that a crowd had gathered around us and that we were the only two people there who didn't work for them.. I just knew our bodies would never ever be found.. I told Dave that we were leaving right NOW!! It was then that it dawned on him that we were in fact surrounded and he had just showed them that he had money.. He tried to put me in front of him but I was snug against his back pocket and I wasn't moving.. I finally said to them that I knew all the tricks and even named the Carnival owner who I once worked for.. I had recognized the woman in the food wagon even though she had not known me.. I knew that they would know who the man was.... Then I told them to clear a path and even though a few of them still called to Dave to try his Luck again and again.. across the parking lots and the field.. they followed us all the way to the road.. none of them touched us.. when we crossed the road to our own side of the road I thanked GOD for saving us from our own weirdness.... I told Dave right then that I would never go with him to another Carnival... I haven't either.. The children were home and watching TV full of cotton candy and popcorn.. They had ~ just as I thought ~ walked the girl from the next road over home.. Cooper was afraid a Carney might follow her.. He and Emily then came home through the fields.. Their own shortcut.. Let me say that as a rule the people who work for carnivals are not weirdo killers and criminals.. under normal circumstances and during the hours they are open they will not bother you.. but if you are weird enough to come to where they are set up after closing and flash around money.. then they are just weird enough to take your money.. One thing I learned while working for them was that where ever they are.. when the rides stop and the games close down... they are in their own little world.... they live a very different and yes weirder way than most of us do.. It is best not to enter that world unprepared..

Wow.. I made it through another weird Wednesday... I even talked to Trudy and she remembers the weird boot things.. she was smarter than me.. she said she never wore hers..I bet Mary didn't either.. I guess I was the only weird one.. Oh well if Mama and Daddy only raised one weird child they did pretty good and I don't mind being the strange one! At least I am a jolly and sometimes funny weirdo! Have a great day!

Hello to everyone who has been eagerly waiting on another weird Wednesday!.. What??? No one was waiting? Wow! Wouldn't I feel weird if really no one was waiting see just how weird I could be??? I hope that there is no one who would actually wait on my post.. I might get all weird and not post for a few days.. what would happen then? Would they just keep waiting? Would they go away and eat some pizza while they waited? Would they go away and not come back? OK enough of me being weird.. Lets get right down to the questions and answers.. those should be weird enough!

1:)~ Would you rather always get first dibs or the last laugh?~ when we were kids Jimmy was always hollering dibs over something.. if we were going somewhere it was dibs on the seat by the door.. or dibs on the front seat.. if we were grilling out by the pool it was dibs on the first hamburger or hot dog.. about the only time he wasn't yelling dibs was when Mama said " honey I'll pay you a quarter.." and Daddy said "line up to get your butt cut" .. then Jimmy didn't want to be anywhere in the first of the line when Daddy was freshest.. I never got first dibs on anything. If Jimmy didn't get dibs then Frank did.. they were both pretty quick with their dibs...
I don't really know if I ever got the last laugh either till I was really grown.. I have gotten the last laugh a few times since I was older.. The first time Mason peed on Anthony I got the last laugh.. I tried to explain how to change him so that wouldn't happen.. I got.. "Mama I KNOW what I am DOING!".. OK.. go ahead then big boy.. I even laughed right out at him as he tried to wipe it off his new shirt.. with his hand.. while the baby continued to pee on him.. then he covered it with a diaper and had pee on the bed and the child's clothes.. everywhere..( But he did learn and is a great Dad!) ~ My kids have all been good for some last laughs.. I am chuckling even now as I sit here alone in my weird little space and relive all of my last
laughs..MUHhahahahahahaa!! Yep! I'll take last laughs always.. Weird as it may sound first dibs aren't all they seem to be sometimes.. But he who laughs last~ laughs loudest!!!!


2:) ~Have you ever had an imaginary friend? ~ I guess it's weird being that I have such an imagination.. but I never had an imaginary friend.. I had so many siblings and so many other real children around that maybe I never needed an imaginary one.. Our Cousin Frances had one and he would cry if you sat on Tater.. Yes it's name was Tater!.. I know it's weird.. but he believed in Tater... Heck we even believed in Tater... we got a few whippings for deliberately sitting on Tater to make Frances cry... I wonder where Tater is now? I wonder if Fran ever thinks about Tater.. I think about Tater and he wasn't even my friend.. I couldn't see him though once I smelled him when Fran said Tater farted!.. It was weird but it didn't smell like an imaginary fart! It smelled like the real thing! I wonder if I'm too old for an Imaginary friend now?? It would be soooo weird! So much fun .. you could fart and say they did it.. just point to an empty chair and say Bogus did it.. In fact I like the idea.. I might get me a new friend.. Will Y'all think I'm weird?

3:) ~ Which is a stronger emotion: anger or love? I'd like to say Love.. I even think it should be love.. But you know for some weird reason.. anger can blind you to love.. or maybe it's that Love makes your anger so much stronger because you feel that a person you love shouldn't hurt you...shouldn't make you angry... I will admit that I am easy to anger sometimes.. some mornings I wake up angry.. I'm not even sure what I'm angry at.. I even think sometimes that I am just angry at myself.. then I realize how weird that is and figure I'm just angry in advance for something some one will do later in the day! Usually in my case though.. no matter how angry I get.. I still love the people who I do love... I think my love is hard to kill... I love people who have done me wrong.. I forgive and move on because I don't like to carry anger with me.. I guess I'm weird but anger can't hurt the other person.. they don't care or they wouldn't have hurt you to begin with.. Be weird like me and love everybody... My Motto is this~ Love Many! Trust a few! Harm None!....

4:) ~ Would you prefer the lights on or off during sex? ~ Somehow I knew there would be a sexual question on here.. My Kids won't think this is funny.. they think sex is too weird for old people like me.. ( is 49 old?) Maybe we can get a clapper and then we can take turns clapping when our hands are free and have flashing lights.. Or better yet I know where they are building a road... they have some yellow flashers set up there... maybe you will run and get us one for our bedroom???? Is this an overhead light or a lamp? .. maybe a lamp with a small watt bulb.. how about a night light? Can we maybe light some candles? .. some scented ones would be nice I think..Maybe we could just put a flash light under the pillow.. just in case you know... . I might like to see where something is.. I might even like to see ..... never mind just cut the lights off I know where all my parts are..

5:) ~ What do you have handy at your bedside?~ What a weird question.. I don't have a flash light.. I do have a lighter even though I no longer smoke.. I use it to light incense sticks and candles.. I do have both of those right by the bed too..You know just in case Tater ( the imaginary friend of my cousin) was to come visit and fart in my bedroom.. I also have my Bible there and My medicines that I take each night just before bed.. I always take with me a bottle of cold water from the fridge and sometimes I take something else to drink too.. I drink a lot.. Weird as it may sound I drink all night too.. I wake up and drink and go back to sleep.. I dream weird stuff and get thirsty.. I have even had to go after the second bottle of water before.. I also have a pen and a notebook there.. and a pencil.. I dream stuff and will wake up and write it down sometimes..I know Y'all think I'm weird so I don't mind telling you that I am weird.. really and truly.. I have woke up before and had a poem in my mind and wrote it right down while still in my bed.. then took a drink of water and went right back to sleep.. then the next morning I looked at the notebook and for a second wondered who wrote that?.. that was a weird feeling.. but it was my hand writing so I know it was just me being weird and not a ghost or anything really weird like that.. I don't think the ghosts here can write.. they never leave me notes.... I also have a stack of paper backs that I have already read and need to swap with someone.. and an Inhaler.. Wow you are nosy tonight! Now I wonder what you have beside your bed.. how weird is that???

OK all done with the weird questions.. who writes these things? Weirdos?? Y"all would be surprised at how many Internet sights there are simply devoted to weird questions.. I have been to a million of them and haven't even scratched the surface yet.. I am telling Y'all that this world has some truly weird people in it.. YES!! Weirder than ME!!! weirder than YOU!!! Weirder than me and you put together.. They make up these questions and every Wednesday I like a weirdo go and answer them.. or at least the ones that I think won't kill my Mom and my Kids! I hope you laughed at me tonight.. I had a few laughs myself thinking about the time tater farted and about the time Mason Peed on Anthony... I love to laugh.. I love to make others laugh too.. If you laughed tonight even if it was a weird laugh.. then I have accomplished much! Leave me a comment !!! Have a great night!!!!

It's Weird Wednesday! Are Y'all ready for this???

Howdy! Howdy! and welcome to another weird Wednesday! Actually this whole week as been weird for me. Sunday was the weirdest day I have had in a long while but I'll save that story for another day.. I'm still thinking on some of it and I don't like to tell a story till I'm all done thinking on it.. who knows.. maybe something weird will come to my mind and I'll realize that things weren't exactly like I felt them to be.. That's very unlikely in this case but I guess weirder things have happened.. Now on to the weird questions for today! Are you ready for this?

1) When you walk past mirrors or large windows, what's the first thing you check in your reflection? ~ Wow I don't check.. am I supposed to check? Maybe I should.. Maybe I should in fact act like a weirdo and check every single time I pass a mirror or any surface that reflects me.. I did notice once that my hair was kinda standing weird and I took my hand and smoothed it down as I walked on.. Then I wondered if it was really standing up weird or was it just a shadow.. either way I had already smoothed it down and I just smiled my weird smile and walked on never looking into any other glass... I guess I'll think about that now and every time I pass glass I'll stop and stare at myself.. I'll become a fancy pants weirdo.. see what you have done?

2:) ~ When swimming, if you really need to pee, how likely are you to just go where you are? ~ Do you know how weird it would be if I said well I'll just tinkle right here in this pool .. NOT! that's my pool I'm in and no one better not Pee in my pool.. I know people do it.. I think it's nasty.. get out dry your feet and go to the bathroom.. are you one of those weird pee swimming fools? Who wants to swim in their own or anyone Else's pee? Me and Dave went to the beach Friday and I was having a pretty good time.. I even got in the water for a change.. I don't get in there often because we all know with a gazillion people there someone has peed.. Most likely a lot of them have.. I was swimming along fine until suddenly I saw this thing in the water.. I wasn't sure at first what it was.. I looked at it twice then three times as it floated closer to me.. I was just about to pick it up and toss it into a wave when I realized it was a TURD!.. yes!! a big fat turd.. That was the third time I have seen turds floating in the water at the beach.. see why I don't go in the water at the Beach! I'm not afraid a shark will bite me.. I'm not weird.. I just don't want any ones turd to bump into me.. and if that makes me weird then I will proudly be weird.. Go to the restroom .. don't be weird and use the bathroom in the same water you are swimming in!!! And if I catch you doing that.. you will know just how weird I can be!!!!

3:) ~Have you ever tampered with some one's food? ~ This is a weird question and I actually have a weird answer for it.. I know that everyone will think I am weird from now on but anyway here is the truth.. Once many years ago I worked in a factory.. Every day I carefully packed my lunch in a brown bag.. I always had a sandwich and if I was lucky I might have a bite left over from supper the night before in a separate plate.. I couldn't smoke on that particular job so I always carried gum in my bag too.. There came a time when for what ever weird reason every single day when I would get ready for lunch.. mt bag would be sitting right there on my shelf but when I'd get to the cafeteria all my food would be gone.. what was even weirder was that they would leave all the wrappers from the gum and my sandwich tossed in the bag.. I told my boss and he laughed at me.. I was mad at that.. I tried to catch them and no matter how close I watched they still managed to get my groceries every single day.. Then one of the other girls told me.. feed them something nasty and I hit upon a weird plan... I changed what I brought to lunch over the next week. Every day I brought a chocolate bar. I switched from sticks of gum to chicklets.. I brought my sandwich still but I started adding a little horseradish to the mayo.. I even told everyone that Horseradish was supposed to help you loose weight.. I also started bringing a thermos full of coffee and I sweetened it.. I hated sweet coffee but the thief loved it.. they drank all of it every day too.. Now it really gets weird.. after about a week of this changing I decided the time was right.. That day I brought my chocolate bar.. only it was switched with e-lax.. the generic brand has no writing on it.. it looked just like my candy.. The chicklets I switched with feen-a-mint.. The horseradish in the mayo hid the crushed Epsom salt real good and that coffee was sweetened with syrup of black draught.. every bite was laced with laxative.. I was the last from my group to go to lunch.. I went for my bag and just as I figured it was empty as was my thermos.. I hurriedly ate a pack of crackers and drank some of that weird and nasty machine coffee as I waited to see what would happen next.. I was rared back in the cafeteria when I heard a wail unlike anything I have ever heard before or since.. I ran out just in time to see the woman who worked right along side me grab her butt and wail again.. she would fold over and hold her stomach and then rare back and grab her butt.. there were weird sounds coming from her belly and her behind.. I didn't know rather to laugh or to cry.. I did pray that she wouldn't die.. She didn't die but she was in the hospital for a few days.. I guess I should be sorry.. weirdly I am not.. she stole my lunch for over a year every single day.. if she hadn't been stealing my food she wouldn't have got laxatives.. and the truly weird thing is.. she is the one that told me to feed them something nasty! I would like to add that I could have carried a gold plate after that and NO ONE touched it.. I don't even think they looked at my shelf! The truth of the matter is that No I haven't tampered with any ones food I did however tamper with mine once!

4:) ~ What's the best thing to do right after sex? ~ snuggle ...then sleep.. unless of course you want to talk in which case wake me up if I fall asleep.... I hate these weird sex questions..

5:) What's something that people do in traffic that really annoys you? I could write a book on this.. I think while you are driving you should drive only.. don't look at the picture your child colored in Day care.. don't talk on the phone unless it's an emergency in which case you should pull off the road.. don't try to look at the short skirted lady in the car next to you.. don't read or apply make up.. don't try to see if the farmer down across yonder has planted corn or sun flowers.. in fact be weird and simply DRIVE!

6:) ~ When was the last time you cried and why? ~Why do you need to know this? Are you the tears police or something weird like that? I cried today.. I cried yesterday too.. I might cry again later tonight or maybe I'll wait till tomorrow.. Tears cleanse the soul they say.. I think I have a really clean soul... for years and years I never ever cried.. I was cried out I said.. then like a spring unleashed I started crying again.. I'm weird and I know it.. I might cry now! Sometimes I know why I cry.. sometimes I don't.. does that make me weird?

7:) ~ Do you own a gravy boat? As a matter of fact I do.. in fact I own a couple of them.. y'all know I'm weird and have all kinds of strange items here.. I am surprised that any one cares though.. I am also surprised that anyone still knows what a gravy boat is.. and for those of you who don't know it's a short and long pitcher that holds gravy on the table.. the old time ladies wouldn't be caught dead with gravy in just a bowl.. they were weird like that.. Fancy.. now we never all sit down together so the table manners and the gravy boats.. are getting tossed..

8:) ~ Among your friends, which would you choose as the next Pope? ~ Oh Please!!! Now you are really being weird.. You don't know any of my friends do you?.. I don't even think any of them are Catholic.. Do you have to be Catholic to be the Pope?.. wouldn't it be weird to have a Pope that wasn't Catholic? I am just laughing here..I can't really think of one of my friends who could be Pope.. I think you have to be Catholic and even if not then you have to be like a good person and not a big sinner... You really don't think I have a friend like that do you?
I mean we don't go around killing people or stealing or anything bad... but the Pope?? Can the Pope curse? Most of my friends Curse... Doesn't the Pope have to be a virgin? I don't know any of those.. at least not any grown ones.. And I'm almost sure the Pope can't have ever been drinking... I guess my Friend Frank could be the closest thing to the Pope that I know.. He's a Preacher and a Good man.. and if he ever did any of those other things .. he left them behind long ago when he gave his life to God.. My brother David would be next in line after Frank of the people I know.... Neither of them are Catholic but you said of my friends and If I had to choose those two would be the top two on my list if they had to come from my friends.... That was a weird question because we all know that the Pope has to be Catholic..

That's it for tonight.. That's all of the weird questions and my weird answers for this week.. I hope you had a laugh.. Maybe you even learned something.. how weird would that be!??
I'm still laughing at one of my friends being the Pope.. I gotta tell y'all that weird as it sounds I am also laughing at the memory of the thief who ate my food.. I know I should be sorry.. and I am sorry she was sick... but I guess as weird as it sounds I made her a better person because I'd bet you money she has never stolen food again! I promise that you would have laughed too... OK OK I'm weird.. I admit it!

Speaking of weird.. yesterday I was going to pay my cell phone bill and I passed a guy holding a sign.. when I came out of the end of the road he waved it in my direction.. It said ~ Homeless Please help!! ~ Now it didn't say he would work for food or anything like that.. I with all my weirdness was about to tell Dave to stop when Dave.. Lord bless Him.. said.. " If he's homeless and needs help where did he get cigarettes?" Then taking a good look at him I realized that he had expensive; bottled; enriched with vitamins; water sitting by his feet.. His feet were wearing Sketches shoes and he was puffing away. He also had a couple of food bags by his chair.. I really wanted to help and yet I had to wonder if he really was homeless. And if he was homeless why wasn't he at a Church somewhere seeking help instead in the intersection in front of the Wal-mart? Am I weird or was he just scamming?? I am still worried about him he was young and pitiful looking.. Praying for him can't hurt.. Maybe you will pray for him too! Have a great Night! Watch out for the weirdo's!

It's Wednesday! Another Weird Day!

Happy Wednesday! Did you do anything weird today? I answered some weird questions and watched a weird storm come almost to us then turn and back away.. It decided to go back where ever it came from I guess.
I was hoping for rain so that I wouldn't have to water and now that the storm decide to go back the other way I guess I'll water in the morning.. We really have weird weather a lot lately! Now on to today's weird questions!


1.) Do you/Did you ever have a piggy bank shaped like a pig? What do you keep your spare change in?~ I have a few piggy banks shaped like pigs. I had a plastic one once that I actually filled with coins. I hated to cut him open but the day came that I needed the money and Homer ( Yes I named my Pig!) got butchered. I have a few glass ones and would love to have more if anyone has some to get rid of... I could start a brand new collection.. I also collect big pigs that go in the yard. I have a fence around part of a flower bed and have a few pigs in there.. We call it the pig pen. Camella gave me my first one that was Granny Jean's..
Now on to the spare change thing... Is there really any such thing as "Spare" change? Sometimes when I'm going into a store someone will ask me if I have any spare change.. My answer is always the same~ " sorry.. I don't have any "SPARE" money!" I do toss change that I am not spending right now into several different bottles or jars around the house. Dave and I went on out honeymoon on a jar of change that I had saved...

2.) Be honest. Have you ever stolen anything before? ~I hate it when someone ask me a question with BE HONEST as the opening.. are they assuming that I would lie? Do they really think their "BE HONEST" will make me tell them the truth?? That's just weird!!! Why do you need to know if I have ever stolen anything? Do you need to know what too? I actually have stolen things before.. At least I reckon it could be called stealing.. I used to go "Old House Rouging" That's when you go in an old abandoned house and if you find junk like maybe an old pot or a bucket or maybe even a jar or bottle.. you take it with you.. I almost always had permission to go into the houses so I'm not sure rather that is stealing or not.. I once lived with no water in my house.. I stole water from the store next door.. I filled up three five gallon buckets with fresh water every night for months. I guess that was stealing since I didn't ask permission to have water from their spigot... without going into any more detail I'll just say yes I have stolen before.. Weird how I never stole anything valuable or important to anyone other than myself.

3.) Would it be more awkward to be walked in on during sex by your parents or your children? ~ I find it very weird that every week we have so many sexual questions.. Are people really so interested in the sex lives of others?? Maybe I'm weird but I really don't care or even want to know about the sex lives of others.. I usually skip these questions but for some weird reason tonight I am going to answer at least this one..... I am not going to be walked in on having sex.. I am an adult.. I have a lock on my bedroom door. I know how it works.. Adults prepare for the fact that kids and yes even parents sometimes wander around the house and open doors without knocking.. At least if it was Parents you wouldn't have to explain to them what was going on.. with Kids you might....Personally I think it would be awkward either way and I can't actually imagine either so I'm going to say.. BUY a LOCK!!!!!

4.) How comfortable would you be at a nude beach? Would you keep your clothes on, keep it modest or bare it all? ~ Can you even begin to imagine me naked at a nude beach.. If you can; then you are truly weird. I know what I look like naked.. I wouldn't scare a whole beach full of folks that way! On the other hand I could most likely walk down a nude beach and not be all red faced by what I might see. Most people don't look nearly as good naked as they think they do.. I have seen a few folks naked in my days and I am not easily impressed.. Most folks look better with clothes on. I wouldn't be covered up from the feet up but I wouldn't be butt naked neither. I'd wear my regular beach clothes... short cut off jean shorts over my bathing suit and a two sizes too big tank top over it all.. OH yea and a beach towel big enough to use as a bed spread just in case I feel the need to wrap up.. who knows I might get to much sun and have to cover up some hot spots... I know.. I'm weird.. don't you just love me anyway though?!

5.) Have you ever had a dream that was in black and white?~ Most people ask me if I dream in color and I always say yes.. I have had a dream though that is always in black and white.. I have had the same dream for years and years.. It is set on an island near Hunting Island State Park.. It is about the light house and a storm.. When I was a little girl and first had the dream I felt that it was weird.. Now I don't find it to be as weird.. It is weird though that this dream is always in black and white and almost all my other dreams are in vivid colors! I have dreams of all kinds.. Funny ones and sad ones and sometimes I even have nightmares... I dream every night and most mornings I remember what I dreamed the night before.. I'll tell you about something weird.. Many years ago I dreamed that I rode a bicycle to My Grandma's house and asked her to ride on the back to a town about an hour away.. she said it was too late at night to go there.. but finally she hopped on the back and away we rode... The next morning when I woke up my legs hurt so bad I could barely stand.. I just had to call Grandma and tell her about my dream.. I figured that I had peddled with my legs while I was asleep and that's why my legs hurt so bad..... When she answered the phone she didn't sound right so I asked her if something was wrong.. she said..
" Last night I dreamed you came and got me to ride on the fender of your bike.. My Behind hurts like the devil this morning from sitting back there all the way to Orangeburg and back.."
Now you tell me.. How weird is that??? Not only did we both dream the same thing but our bodies ached as if we had really done what we dreamed.. Really weird I know!!!

6:) What is the most bizarre thing you’ve done on a dare? this one is so easy.. the craziest thing I ever did on a dare was to run around the walking track with a dog gone and get the cops called on me because some old people said a weirdo was out there acting weird... You can read about it here on my blog on one of the very first posts.. on the right side of this blog click on 2008... then click on the month of April and you will find it there .. It is called Taking a Dare.. I promise you that you will laugh and laugh at the lengths I went to for a dare! I must be getting old though.. I don't take weird dares any more...


there ya go.. That's the weird questions for today! I hope you Had a great Wednesday and Hopefully your day wasn't too awfully weird! My day was great.. Dave finished a pen and we moved some Phoenixes... those are chickens with long tails.. known as fire birds in all the weird video games.... I cooked a weird new dish with zucchini instead of eggplant in eggplant Parmesan. It tasted great! I ate too much of it.. and Mason spent last night and tonight with me.. he loves me even if I am weird...I hope that you have a wonderful day!

Welcome to Wednesday~ a day for Weirdness!

"Speak the truth in a million voices. It is silence that kills." ~ Catherine of Siena

"The devil's voice is sweet to hear." ~Stephen King

Welcome to another batch of weird questions for Wednesday. I actually had to dig for these since the regular weird sight hasn't been up-dated today. It's kinda weird; they usually have plenty of questions.. some too weird even for me. I hope you enjoy today's weird questions and my equally weird answers.

1:) You are in the Witness Protection Program and must invent a new first, last, and middle name. What’s your new name? ~ Wow. can't I just use one of my old names.. No one knows My middle name anyway. How about I use the name I used to sign into clubs with when I was single? I like my name. I don't want a new name. Why am I hiding anyway. Did I see something at the hotel that I shouldn't have seen? Can I take my kids and Grand kids into hiding too? Is Dave allowed to go?I don't think I'm going either.. what if I don't like it where ever y'all put me? Wait now, can I have chickens there? OK.. OK.. OK.. alright already.. My new name is Emily Ann Cooper.. but I still don't want to go!

2:) You can press a button that will make any one person you choose explode. Who are you going to blow up? What a loaded question... just one person huh? I have a list that I will have to look over.. yes I actually have a list.. It's my @sh cutting list... it's pretty short too... I used to just jump right in.. But there was this promise I made to my Daddy about one of my children being an adult before I might have to go to jail.. All my children are grown now though.. Hmmm.. Just one person huh? Can I tie two together or three? Maybe I can lure the others close to the boom! Hurt their ears a little at least? I'll be honest with you.. I looked over the list and honestly I decided that blowing any of these people up would be way to kind and quick.. I'm weird that way I reckon.. I'd rather just keep their name on my list and one day when they cross me in just the right place and the right time.. I'll be on them like stink on a pile... They will wish I had blown them up... then again maybe I'll just leave them alone.. Daddy said what goes around comes around and if that's true I might even feel sorry for them some day.. in fact looking over the list I sorta feel sorry for them already.. But now if I can tie them all together somehow.. then the BOOM will be on!

3:) You meet a wizard in downtown Chicago. The wizard tells you he can make you more attractive if you pay him money. When you ask how the process works, the wizard points to a random stranger. The wizard says, “I will now make them a dollar more attractive.” He waves his magic wand. Ostensibly, this person does not change at all; as far as you can tell, nothing it different. But – somehow – this person is suddenly a little more appealing. The tangible difference is invisible to the naked eye, but you can’t deny that this person is vaguely sexier. This wizard has a weird rule, though – you can only pay him once. You can’t keep giving him money until you are satisfied. You can only pay him one lump sum up front. How much cash do you give the wizard?
~ This question is just weird.. Why am I in Chicago? Did I get stranded there again while flying somewhere? Am I sure this is a real wizard and not some street freak stealing my money? And anyway why would I think some stranger is sexier? Did I find him or her sexy to begin with? Who thinks up these questions? Can I just walk away from the wizard or will he then take away all my own "sexy?" Can I run from the wizard or will he wave his wand and bring me right back? I'm going to give the wizard five dollars.. That is enough to get him a drink if he is a street freak without breaking my pocket book and I'm already sexy enough.. much more and I'll be so sexy no one would dare to approach me.. I'm still trying to figure out why I'm in Chicago.... Maybe the wizard will just send me back home for free!

4:)Would you rather be able to hear any conversation or take back anything you say? ~First of all, I never speak without thinking. I learned a long time ago that you can't call back words. I try not to say hurtful and mean things. Only a very few times have I let something mean slip out and that was usually when some idiot made me madder than a hornet quicker than my mind could keep up. That doesn't happen to me often. I can say some things that people think is meant to hurt.. if the truth hurts then I am sorry that you were hurt.. Maybe you should work to change the truth.. I have seen people talking and thought to myself and sometimes even said to others; " I'd like to be a fly on that wall!" I wouldn't want to hear all conversations.. I don't think what others think of me is really any of my business. They are entitled to dislike me if they so choose. I won't care if they don't like me. I'm weird like that! I guess if I have to choose one I'd like to hear any conversation.. I sure hope I don't have to listen to boring stuff or worse; weird sexual conversations.. I'm looking for ear plugs right now!!! On second thought~ (are second thoughts allowed?) Maybe I'll just choose take back what ever I say.

5:) Have you ever played naked twister? ~I am sitting here in from of My own personal computer and just shivered at the thought of seeing anyone play twister naked... When I was ten I got a twister game for Christmas from "Uncle J" ( not his real name of course!). He gave us all games that year... Well except Jimmy... he gave Jimmy Lincoln Logs... He was too old for Lincoln logs I guess... Jimmy cursed and carried on.. anyway back to twister.. We all gathered in the living room... us kids and the grown ups and His fancy kids too. We were going to play twister. We spun the little thing and it said left foot green. and by the time it got to me and right foot blue there were foots and hands on every single dot. "Uncle J" said just stack them up and that's when My Daddy said .." that's enough of that twisting and stretching and rubbing and stacking up stuff.".. I looked at daddy and he was frowning over his glasses and I quickly folded up the dotted mat and put it and the spinner back in the box. I ran to my room and shoved the game on the closet shelf where it stayed until I got married. I left it there on that shelf and if someone else didn't take it then it was most likely still there when they pulled that trailer away a few years ago. When I got divorced I went to a party once and out came the twister game.. they weren't naked while I was there but they were making the game into something that made me want a shower..I'm pretty sure they got naked after I left.. Nope I have never played naked twister.. Don't you think it would be weird? Wouldn't stuff that isn't meant to be twisted get in the way? Wasn't twister designed for kids? Why is it that some people want to play a kids game naked.. there are so many weird people in the world!

Well there are five more weird questions for you to laugh at and enjoy with their weird answers too. I used to think that the world was a bright ans Sunny place.... the truth is that there are a lot of weird people in the world and almost all of us have some weird habits... yes even me! At least I don't play naked twister... I guess I shouldn't knock it without trying it so maybe I'll try to find a group to play at my house next week.... See I can be weird too.. I can just see me telling my kids I played naked twister.. I wonder if they have played.. I'm going to email them all and ask.. Now see what you have done with that weird question!!! Now I'm acting all weird and stuff.. That naked twister thing is going to cause me to have nightmares tonight! I'm thinking I'll go for a midnight swim and practice some of my twister moves in water.. Now how weird is that?? I hope you have enjoyed tonight's weird questions.. Have a wonderful weird Wednesday!

Hey Hey; It's Weird Wednesday

"I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult. "
~ Rita Rudner

"I'm in a weird band . We've done very well. The American Dream is alive and well."
~ Gene Simmons

"I'm one of those regular weird people." ~ Janis Joplin

Hey Hey Hey and welcome to another weird Wednesday. I have been very busy all day cleaning house and getting ready for week-end visitors. With my weird job you never know when they might call you into work and need you in "five more minutes" as they say, so I have been trying to get the house cleaned and everything ready for my guests while listening out for the phone. I always work week-ends so everything has to be done ahead. I know, I'm weird But what can I say? I am just being me! We have also been having weird weather this week. It has rained and rained and rained some more. Most of the time the rain has fallen with the sun shining.. That is always weird to me. It was really weird this week because usually when that happens you will see a rainbow. I have looked and looked.. Weirdly, I haven't spotted a rainbow this whole week.
Now on to the wild and wacky weird questions for this week!

~ Wednesday Weirdness

Questions By: Ruby Rose

1.) How easily are you insulted? Many of you will be surprised to find that I am actually very easily insulted. I take everything said to me personally. I hide that fact very well. I will make a weird remark or a joke and move away from the person who has insulted me or hurt my feelings.. Don't think I forget though.. I NEVER forget. I will stew in my own juices until one fine weird day I either get even or see someone else get you so good that I say we are even. My Daddy used to say that ~ " Everyone gets what they deserve. The sun don't shine on the same dogs back every day." I used to think that he was so weird with his sayings.. I have seen his sayings come true so many times.

2.) How often do you ****~ Whoa there Nellie! that was a question so weird even I couldn't go there. My kids would vomit.. My Mama would die a sudden death and my Daddy would spin like a top in his grave.. (if that really is possible!) I know inquiring minds want to know but I don't do the questions that make my kids sick. Sorry Y'all I know I'm weird; But I promised my mama and my kids I wouldn't make them sick. They read my blog.. I have to appear to be behaving.. !<~~( Waving at a preacher!) See I AM behaving! (Does almost behaving count?)

3.) What brand of shoes do you find to be most comfortable?Man, are y'all gonna tell me shoes come in Brands? Is Flip flop a brand? My favorite brand would be bare footed. I think maybe y'all mean like Nike or Sketches? ( I might have got sketches wrong though!) I don't actually do brands when it comes to shoes unless Avon is a brand. I love their flip flops. Mama bought them for me to celebrate when I got a new job. She understands my weirdness and knew I would love them. I wear them to work and they don't kill my feet. I do have some shoes. I don't know their brand. They were cheap. Maybe they are a store brand. I even have some boots.. they are so old.. If they ever had a brand I forgot what it was. OK, I better move on to a new question before Y'all think I am weird.

4.) What are 3 to 5 items you NEVER leave the house without? A pen , a Notebook, Thread of some kind to knit or crochet with and needles for both, scissors, and weird as it may sound a doll hiding in my purse. Pen and Paper are for writing down thoughts or quotes or maybe changes to a dress I am making for my hiding doll. I carry a small writing notebook with me everywhere. You never know when what seems to be just another weird thought will develop into a wonderful story or poem. You have to write those weird ideas down at once! Otherwise they might wander away and be lost to you. Even people with as much talent as I have to do other things sometimes.. I carry a doll and thread to make things for her with me all the time. Sometimes I also have a hat I am knitting on or another craft project as well. I guess it goes without saying that I also always carry a pretty good sized purse..

5.) Who did you look up to as you were growing up? Who do you look up to now? Y'all are really gonna think I am weird now.. when I was a teen, my Mama had a loud and bad as I hate to say it; kinda weird old lady friend. She had a great big house on main street in our town at the time.. I always thought her house was the greatest but she stayed with us for the longest time... sleeping on our couch.. There was no sneaking around with Mama Mildred in the house... None of that weird Shit.. as she called it... She cussed like a sailor. I don't think she ever uttered a sentence that wasn't filled with swear words. She had chopped off gray hair that always looked dirty to me.. her favorite shirt was lime green. She matched that with her brown double knit pants and her slide on light pink, fuzzy, bedroom shoes.. She had a kinda evil eye that she would turn on you sometimes. Making me shiver in a weird kinda way.. Lord I loved that woman.. I miss her still today. After I married she went back to her own house just long enough to sell it to the neighbor and buy herself a tiny trailer on the lake. She got a passel of dogs who she never took outside and they begot more and more nasty little dogs. Then she fell in love with some young Guy who asked to fish from her dock. Long story~ shortened... He married her.. (she had some money).. he beat her up.. she said let him go.. he left town... she never recovered.. she died..

I look up to so many people now.. My Mama.. Charlie Jackson... My Older siblings.. My younger siblings...( I could have been weird and said I looked down at y' all).. certain Friends... My children.. I love old people. I have always loved old people. They have so much to share and few who want to hear it.

6.) If you've ever been a strip club of any type, what was one of your most memorable moments? I won't lie.. I have been there.. I was invited to a club once when I was single along with a girl friend of mine. We drove all the way to Charleston thinking we had a hot date. It was a fat girl strip club.. the man who invited us was the owner... he thought we would make good dancers. He was so weird.. just because we were good dancers he thought we might somehow become fat for his club.. can you imagine?

I was also supposed to go twice to see the male strippers.. the first time My daddy found out and told me I couldn't go.. I was 25 and living in his house with my son.. I reminded him that I was 25.. he said I couldn't go..

The second time I was supposed to go with two women friends of mine.. I was all dressed up and ready to walk out the door.. I was looking good in my new jeans.. I even had on shoes... ( NO I don't know what brand!!!) Long hair straightened and shiny.. sweet smelling perfume dabbed in all the right places... Cooper came into the room and said "Mommy, please don't go to no bar where they dance.. promise me mommy!"

I still haven't seen the male strippers.. for some weird reason.. I don't think I would even care to see them now. Somehow I think I wouldn't like it.. I would find it way to weird to see a naked man dancing around.. stuff wiggling and waggling about.. Yuck that is so weird!

7.) Should prostitution be legal? Why or why not? I personally don't think it should be legal. Isn't it already legal in Nevada or is it just that there are so many there we think it's legal? It goes on everywhere in different ways. Even in small towns people trade their bodies for money or drugs. I find it sad that a person allows themselves to become a slave to a drug that will make them sell their body and even their soul for another dose. Prostitution will always exist in one form or the other.. should it be Legal? I say NO!~

I looked it up and there are legal brothels in Nevada. In Rhode Island the act of sex for money is not illegal but operating a brothel or selling sex on the street is..

Contrary to popular belief, prostitution is illegal in Las Vegas! Most of the brothels are in rural areas and not in the big cities. How weird is that???

I hope y'all have enjoyed my weird Wednesday questions this week. I only had to skip one this week. Even for a weird old Lady like me that is pretty good. I like being weird. I have been a weird old Lady for a long time now.. It would be really weird to be anything else. I hope Y'all have a wonderfully weird Wednesday!
